Ambient Alkaline Pretreatment Enables Isoprenol Fermentation from Lignocellulosic Biomass for Sustainable Aviation Fuel Production

Abstract Mitigating aviation’s carbon emissions remains challenging because air travel relies on energy-dense liquid fuels with limited substitutes. Here, we report a fermentation-based bioconversion process for producing isoprenol, a precursor to 1,4-dimethylcyclooctane (DMCO),...

Addressing turnover in the child welfare workforce: a research note on high-attenders in a cluster-randomized trial of Resilience Alliance

Introduction: United States’ child welfare agencies have been challenged with workforce turnover. We previously tested an adaptation of Resilience Alliance (RA), a program designed to mitigate the impact of secondary traumatic stress. Results from the randomized trial showed no s...

Providing End-of-Life Care to Older Adults: A Qualitative Interpretative Meta-Synthesis of Clinicians’ Experiences

Clinicians are integral to end-of-life (EOL) care decision-making and play a critical role in shaping the experiences of older adults and their families during the final days of life. This qualitative interpretative meta-synthesis (QIMS) examined the existing published qualitativ...

Cognitive Workload Assessment in Procedural Tasks

Objective To examine how task anomalies and time pressure influence cognitive workload in procedural tasks and to identify whether workload effects are transient or sustained. Background Procedural tasks often involve sequential actions for which disruptions, such as operational...

Comparative Analysis of Lifecycle-Dependent A to I RNA Editing in Three Members of the Microbotryum violaceum Fungal Complex

A-to-I RNA editing is increasingly recognized as a regulator of fungal development and pathogenesis, yet its extent and lifecycle dependence remain poorly characterized in basidiomycetes. Microbotryum superbum (MvSup), M. intermedium (MI), and M. lychnidis-dioicae (MVLG) are memb...
